Occupying the Centre
Can you see a dragonfly resting on the flower bud?
In Taiji, we talk about keeping the centre and occupying the centre so as to maintain the balance and obtain the best positioning.
The dragonfly and the flower bud seem to be on the same vertical axis. Who is occupying the centre? the dragonfly or the flower bud?

I think the dragonfly is not at the centre though he has chosen a good positon in the pond, there is no place for him, he should fly to other places.
Find the right position in life, the story tells us.
